Simple but totally delicious, this salad by Shuko Oda is great shared among two alongside a few other dishes. Tokyo turnips appear in early spring – recognisable by their white colour and small radish-like size. They're particularly delicious raw, with a lovely crunch that goes nicely with the bitter chicory leaves, umami-rich bonito flakes and a sweet and sour salad dressing.
